Getting lows

[46james46]

Hey guys! My car is on tein springs atm, but I want more lows! I don't think my car looks lowered :-/ it's annoying me! I can't really afford to be spending 600+ on coilovers, but can't find springs that are lower than 40mm?? Can anyone help??

Cut a coil off the springs

Is that not illegal and will fail mot?

[akyakapotter]

^^^ no aslong as the spring can't come free I cable tied a set I done on an old escort I had wouldn't advise it as it makes it such a harsh ride

[46james46]

Ahhh right! Learn something new everyday haha! Gonna have to save for coilys I reckon :-(

TEIN's are well known for not lowering Starlet's. Seen it many a times. Some cheapo 40mm springs will see it lower than your current setup. Spax or PI used to be the brand a few years ago now, I image they are still around.

Don't go cutting springs, you will probably end up in a ditch.

[akyakapotter]

I'm sure people keep putting the gt ones on as mine sat quite low with glanza tein springs

[46james46]

Yeah I seen spax, they're pretty cheap like £112 or something! How much you reckon I could get 2nd hand coilovers for? Gonna take ages to pay 700+ for a new set
